Just lol if you are still in stocks
I’m totally out, sold everything. People are gonna get raked over the coals.
CEOs and corporate insiders are dumping stock at a far faster rate than we've seen in recent years, and the twist is, they're ramping up selling as their own companies engage in record stock buybacks.
In November, insiders unloaded a collective $15.59 billion - an all-time record...
Forty-eight top executives have disposed of more than $200 million each in stock sales this year, about four times the average versus insider from 2016 through 2020, according to a new report via WSJ, citing data from the research firm InsiderScore.
The tsunami of insider selling consists of Google co-founders Larry Page and Sergey Brin, cosmetics billionaire Ronald Lauder, Walton family heirs to Walmart, and Mark Zuckerberg, chief executive of ******** parent Meta Platforms Inc, among others. Many of them have dramatically accelerated stock sales.
InsiderScore data shows corporate insiders sold a mindboggling $63.5 billion in shares through November, a 50% jump versus all of 2020. The selling comes as major equity stock indexes are hovering near record highs and stock buybacks continue at breakneck speeds. Most of the insider dumping was in the technology sector, amounting to $41 billion in sales.

This upcoming taper is baaaaad news for stock brahs.
41% of the stock market growth since 2011 has been due to corporate buybacks. Without those, SPY would be around $270 right now instead of $470, dedfukkinsrs.

The trick is that the C-suite has most of their compensation tied up in stock price performance incentives. What the board can do is approve borrowing billions of near-0% loans, use that money to buy back their own shares, hit those share price targets, and pay out massive bonuses to themselves. It's literally an infinite money glitch for rich and connected psychopaths. And those companies have a huge amount of debt on their ledger, but the payments on it aren't chit, so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Where that's gonna break is when interest rates rise above zero, buybacks don't work anymore. Companies can't borrow huge sums for repurchases without killing their cash flow. That's going to break the growth mechanism that the stock market's been relying on for the last decade of bulling.
Then couple that stock money is going to yuugely outflow back into bonds once bonds start paying better than -5%, and stocks could go down and remain down for a long time.
It all comes down to whether or not the Federal Reserve is willing to raise interest rates or not. This is a nationalized market.

If we hit severe inflation and/or hyperinflation, the intrinsic value of these companies on the books will rise to accommodate. Take amazon for example, they own numerous distribution networks, physical goods, and buildings, the value of all of these things will rise along with inflation. This will reflect in the share price won't it?

I honestly doubt we will have hyperinflation but it will get worse. I use this worthless money to try to buy things that have value because I believe we will have a hard time in the next decade. I would rather have a lake I can swim in or jet ski in then a share of Amazon.
If I was a financial advisor (which I’m not) I would tell people to pay off debts (especially if they don’t have an asset connected to them, house, car etc) and then buy things that have value.

As with all things. There will be winners and losers.
Also selloffs aren't really what they seem. Elon Musk has been in the news lately for selling off 12 billion dollars worth of Tesla. Idiots are trying to come up with reasons 'why'.
The simple truth of the matter is Elon just acquired more shares then he sold. From what I've seen all the talk has been Elon selling Tesla and the fact that he acquired more shares then he sold is fairly quiet.https://www.businessinsider.com/tesl...-sells-2021-12
I'm holding firm on Tesla. If they drop into the 800s I'll likely start buying more Tesla. I'm also buying Palantir. If it continues to dip lower I'll keep buying. I have a really high confidence level with these to withstand the storm.
By the time they decide to sell. Then decide to buy back. Then pay their taxes. They most likely won't have done as well as they think. I think most retail investors would be better off buying & holding quality companies.

We will have a small retracement with some volatility then the federal reserve will pussy back into easy money policies. Politicians are too cowardly to hurt the bubble economy for long term stability.

What happens if we do hit hyperinflation? You can't sell your jet skis to buy something, you're just going to have your possessions and that's it. Yes their intrinsic value may have risen due to hyperinflation, but who's going to buy them if you need to sell, at those inflated prices?
Paying off debt in this scenario isn't a good idea unless the debt is tied to a variable interest rate; if cash is becoming worthless your debt is also becoming worthless. I have debt but I'm choosing not to pay it off since it's becoming less and less valuable relative to everything else.
I could be wrong on what happens to the market, but to me, if we are running into an inflation scenario the price of everything goes up, including whatever assets are on the books of companies in the market. There may be a short term sell off due to tapering but in the long term the market will come back. Think about a coffee company for example; their share price may tank in the short term, but in the long term when coffee rises to $20/cup and their physical stores are valued higher due to rising real estate prices, that's going to reflect in their earnings statements and their share price will have to increase to accommodate. Right?

You shouldn’t look at something based on a price but the value of it. Just because a Supreme brick is $100 is it’s value a $100?
Also with the history of inflation everything doesn’t go up, somethings will go down in price. It’s not an even across the board scenario. During the depression glass makers (think vases, plates etc) were not selling as they were expensive so for the glass makers to stay in business they made cheaper glass and they made contracts with companies to stay in business. For example, if you bought a carton of oats, you would get a glass cup for free. This was also a way of keeping people interested during those tough times. People would want to collect all the colors etc.
I understand this doesn’t match today’s society but it shows that companies will adapt and so won’t people. If inflation does ramp up, people will buy less, companies will want to stay open and they will start selling their products for cheaper (less profit) etc. Deflation always happens after inflation. Sell high (inflation), buy low (deflation). This is how the wealthy stay wealthy. They buy when everyone else is selling.

This is the perfect time to buy property that’s valuable (by water, mountains, acreage etc). The fixed rates are the lowest they will be. I got neighbors paying almost 8%. Crazy

If inflation is high, people will buy more because their buying power is rapidly decreasing, not less because their savings are becoming worthless.

That’s the entire reason supply is so low right now.
If inflation is high, people will buy more because their buying power is rapidly decreasing, not less because their savings are becoming worthless.

People will buy during inflation but you should be buying things that will help you in the future. Could be stock pile of food etc or maybe upgrade your house if you are staying there. These things have value. I’m not taking about the new $60 video game or $200 limited drop of Nikes.
The misc is full of a bunch of simp ****ots

The value of something is the price that people are willing to pay for it, there is no defined value for a good or service beyond that. If a supreme brick is $100 that is the price the market has determined that willing buyers will pay, so yes, it's value is $100.
I can understand that not every company will go up during inflation.

But I think it would be worthless in a worse case scenario.Lol what? Btc is up about 66% from year to date and over 1000% in almost 2 yr span
Good news is I really don't think things are going to get that bad for most of us.

People have been saying this for a decade. You can't time the market. Warren Buffett not only says he can't do it, but he doesn't know anyone who knows anyone who can do it.
